Abstract—This paper explores the pivotal role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in cybersecurity, encompassing user authentica- tion, threat detection, and malware analysis. While AI’s capacity to process vast data volumes rapidly and its pattern recognition capabilities enable real-time threat identification, challenges such as the need for extensive training data, interpretative limitations, and adversarial threats exist. The paper emphasizes a human- centric approach, advocating for AI’s integration with cyber- security experts to maximize its efficacy. It concludes that AI, when thoughtfully designed and combined with human oversight, significantly enhances cybersecurity, although further research is needed to address evolving challenges in this critical domain.
